As your beer travels from keg to faucet, every connection point is important. With this draft beer shank assembly, you get a dependable product at a great price.

The beer shank is the internal piece of the tower that connects the beer line to the faucet for dispensing your draft beer. This assembly includes the shank and the metal tailpiece. The 90-degree angle of the gooseneck makes it much easier to attach the beer line and pour beer from it.

This gooseneck shank assembly features a durable steel construction. For enhanced reliability, the gooseneck is welded directly to the shank. This means you won’t have to worry about installing or replacing compression fittings.

The gooseneck tailpiece make it very easy to attach your beer line. The angle of the elbow also prevents the plastic tube from kinking, which can disrupt your pouring.

This simple but effective beer shank assembly will work with most standard beer towers. You should have no trouble at all installing your tower shank assembly, connecting your beer line, and attaching your faucet.

BEST ANSWER:I put two in a 2.5 inch tower. Only problem I had was tightening the nut to secure the shank to the tower. There is probably a good tool for this but I didn't have it. Used an open-end wrench.Don't know what a Perlick 650SS is.

Does this connect to the line from the keg on one end and to the shank on the other?

BEST ANSWER:Yes. The tube from the tank/barrel/keg goes to the small tube on the connector. The large end protrudes thru the tower. The lock nut must be removed first. The unit is inserted from the outside of the tower, the lock nut is installed, then the plastic tube from the tank is attached to the small tube of the connector.

BEST ANSWER:Hi, under the ring which you turn with that special faucet wrench (left side of the picture) should be a SS snap ring and a rubber O-ring (part of this assembly). When you install the beer faucet onto the shank assembly, the faucet pushes against that o-ring. There is another o-ring in the beer faucet also pushing against the shank assembly. So...in the end there are two o-rings sealing and there should be no leak.

I want to fit this to a steel plate which then attached to a tile. Behind the tile there is a void to run the beer lines directly down. Would this be able to handle the 10mm thickness of the steel plate and tile?

BEST ANSWER:Hello,

For the best result you would want to use a shank and beer line. You will also need a way to keep the line cold to prevent a foaming issue.
